I am grad student, former athlete, and board game fanatic. I am happy to drive or pick up kids from activities. I’m game for pretty much anything and would love the chance to get to know your kid(s)!
“Logan was awesome! She handled our 1 and 3 year-olds like a real pro. There were a lot of tears when we said goodbye, but she got our kids to settle down quickly after we left. She made fast friends with them and juggled the double bedtime routine no problem. Very warm and outgoing.”

Booked by 8 families in Rougemont, NC
I began working as a babysitter in my teen years and loved it so much that I continued babysitting throughout college and into my 20s. After getting married and becoming a socialworker, I became a mother to my own child, who is now 18 years old and getting ready to go off to college this month! I have the experience of being both a babysitter, as well as a parent. I am CPR trained and because I worked for many years in Early Intervention, I am very knowledgeable about child development. I’m also a playful, energetic person who will engage with your child(ren). I love being outside, and enjoy crafts.
“Emily is wonderful. She is timely and so kind with our daughter. We really appreciate her!”
